Cigarette paper dispenser

ABSTRACT

The invention relates to a cigarette paper dispenser comprising a substantially cylindrical body ( 1 ) with a coaxial cylindrical cavity, having a longitudinal slit ( 11 ) that extends along the generatrix the entire length of the body ( 1 ), allowing the passage of paper unrolled from the roll. The cylindrical body ( 1 ) is closed at the bases thereof by means of two caps ( 3 ) and ( 4 ). The aforementioned slit ( 41 ) is closed by a lid ( 2 ) articulated longitudinally with the periphery of the body ( 1 ) and having a semi-circumferential configuration with a profiled free edge ( 21 ) forming a sharp, cutting or serrated edge that is positioned adjacent to one end of the roll of paper, the desired length of which is extracted axially and cut from the roll.

OBJECT OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to a dispenser of cigarette paper from a roll of paper. This dispenser can also be applied on paper rolls, aluminum foil or plastic food, especially for domestic use, although this is not the object of the present invention.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Currently various paper dispensers are known, particularly household paper, which has rolled into a cylinder, from which extracts the desired length by pulling the free end of the roll in the axial direction.

The domestic paper dispensers generally have a body designed to support the roll by means of a horizontal roller passing through a cardboard tube, which rolls on the material forming the roll, so as to allow the user to unroll and tear sheets of the desired length.

The arrangement of the domestic paper dispensers is not valid when it comes to cigarette paper, among other reasons because it is also necessary to protect the roll to fit in any pocket without being deformed and therefore unusable. For this reason, increased consumption of cigarette paper is paper that is manufactured in sheets, mounted in a case such booklet. This involves some disadvantages when consuming paper and is only possible to have a standard size paper and therefore smoking is also a standard size.

DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

The rolls of cigarette paper, with a sideband sticker to facilitate the closure of the cigarettes allow cigarette rolling of any length reason why they are widely accepted by smokers of tobacco. However, in contrast to domestic paper rolls, which uses a central tube of cardboard or a less deformable material, rolls of cigarette paper do not have this type of support, to minimize their size and facilitate its location in any pocket, from this cause it is necessary to prevent deformation of the roll to be able to draw a slip of paper and cut it accurately. Thus, the main purpose of the present invention is to eliminate the drawbacks mentioned above, reaching the result that has the characteristics described in the significant part of claim 1.

The dispenser comprises a substantially cylindrical body defining a cylindrical cavity coaxial interior, fitted with a longitudinal window that extends along the entire length of the body to allow passage of the paper that is unwound from the roll. The sides are closed by two lids that fit and are set without possibility of rotation through neural pathways that are located on the longitudinal ends of the window.

This window is closed by a lid, which articulates longitudinally in the periphery of the body and has a semi-circumferential configuration adopted, when closed, a position above the mentioned window. The free edge of the lid has a profile that defines a sharp edge, cutting or ribbed, which is located adjacent to one end of the roll of paper, allowing to cut the portion of paper taken from the whole roll.

This smoking paper dispenser may include replaceable rolls; to this end it is envisaged that one of the side plugs is associated with a straight shaft, which runs through the axial hole of the roll of paper and attached to the other lateral pressure cap, allowing the removal and placement of the first to change the roll of paper and place a new one.

Fixing the lid to the holder body is performed through a simple sticker, which holds the combination of both bodies, except in the area corresponding to the longitudinal window. The hinge and the fixation of the lid to the main body is allowed by this sticker, which at the same time serves as a place to offer the data and brands of the product.

In an alternative embodiment, the holder body has a length that extends beyond their own paper included inside. In this case, it has an inner disk as a cap, which delimits a first cavity for the unwinding paper and goes through a longitudinal window as described above and a second cavity to the opposite side, which is opened by a wider window than the previous, having designed the cavity to keep the cigarette nozzles or smoking accessories items.

DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

To complement the description being made and in order to facilitate understanding of the features of the invention, attached to this specification there are a set of drawings in which, for purposes of illustration and not limitation, is represented as follows:

FIGS. 1, 2 and 3 show respective perspective views of a dispenser made in accordance with the invention, respectively in the closed position, with the lid open and their ordnance components.

FIG. 4 shows paths plan views, elevation and profile of the dispenser.

FIG. 5 shows a perspective view with separated parts in a variant embodiment of the smoking paper dispenser of the invention.

FIG. 6 shows several plan and elevation views of a dispenser having an accessory cavity for nozzles or similar elements.

PREFERRED EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION

As can be seen in the figures referenced, the device of the invention comprises a cylindrical spliff (1), hollow, provided with a generatrix window (11) and both lids (3) and/or (4) that fit on the edges of the spliff (1). These caps have respectively small projections (31) and (41) that fit into the slot or window (11), so it locks in a fixed position. The ends (3) are fixed and can be attached to the body (1), cap (4) is provided with a rod (42) that is inserted inside the paper roll and pressure latches on the lid (3) located on the opposite side as well, two embodiments are possible:

-   -   The one shown in FIGS. 1 to 4 in which the lid (4) is provided         by the aforementioned rod (42) and thus is removable and         therefore the paper roll can be replaced by a new one.     -   The solution depicted in FIG. 5 corresponds to a disposable         dispenser, because when it runs out of paper another roll cannot         be replaced because the ends (3) are fixed.

The body of the spliff (1) has a cover (2), which has a semi-circumferential section and hinges on a lateral area with respect to the window (11), so that when you close it stands above it, covering it. The hinge is formed by the sticker itself (5) of the product that sticks over the body (1) and the lid (2) partially clothed except for the window (11). It is also envisaged that the edge (21) of the cap (2) presents a contoured cut that allows to cut the inside of the paper roll as extracted axially once the stretched the desired length.

FIG. 6 shows a cigarette-paper dispenser that has a greater length than the own paper included inside. Inside has an inner disc (6) as a cap, which delimits a first cavity for the paper that is to be unwounded and exits through the longitudinal window (11) and a second cavity to the opposite side, opened by a window (12), bigger than the previous (11), in which interior you can keep nozzles or smoking accessories.

Having sufficiently described the nature of the invention and a preferred embodiment, it is stated that the materials, shape, size and arrangement of the elements described can be modified, provided that this does not alter essential features of the invention as claimed below.
